I think Parkersburg, WV. My home state!
We did week long gigs at the Pub 47 on route 47. The old Staunton Parkersburg turnpike from the 1840’s. At about the same time!
Danced to that beat! Play that funky music White Boy!
I saw Wild Cherry in concert with Iron Butterfly in 1978 or 79 in Grand Forks, ND. Haven’t been to another rock concert since then.
In the Bay area, about 1990. My wife worked with the woman who's ex-husband was the guy who played the lead guitar on that "hook" of that famous tune. Her name was Joan, and she was about the most incredible pianist I have ever seen. She worked nights at Max's Opera Cafe in Walnut Creek.
Hehehe, those were the days BEFORE all the looting....
